After receiving her undergraduate degree from the University of Maryland, she attended medical school at Columbia University College of Physicians and Surgeons in New York. Dr. Carr completed her residency training in General Surgery at Albert Einstein-Montefiore in Bronx, NY, then went on to an Endocrine Surgery fellowship at Medical College of Wisconsin in Milwaukee, specializing in thyroid and parathyroid surgery. She stayed on as an Assistant Professor of surgery for 5 years, then came to the Keck School of Medicine of USC to complete a Breast Surgical Oncology fellowship.
Dr. Carr is focused on treating patients with benign and malignant breast, thyroid, and parathyroid disease. She is committed to patient-focused interdisciplinary care and has experience with advanced breast and endocrine surgical techniques.
